Stratobel Strong: AGC’s new laminated safety glass offering unique strength and an exclusive look!

Date: 2 November 2015

By incorporating an exclusive PVB film which is more rigid than the plastic films usually used in conventional safety glazing, Stratobel Strong provides enhanced mechanical properties, whilst offering a perfectly neutral appearance.

More rigid, more resistantThe PVB film used in Stratobel Strong is 100 times more rigid than the standard plastic films used, which gives it a higher load capacity; as such, under certain conditions, the toughening process may no longer be necessary.The thickness of the glass can also be reduced, resulting in a thinner, lighter assembly. Stratobel Strong also offers lower glass deflection under load: the laminated glass remains in place even when broken, ensuring safety and security for people and property. The PVB film’s strong adhesion to the glass significantly reduces its sensitivity to moisture and limits the risk of delamination, and its composition is also compatible with a wide range of sealants and adhesives.

Perfectly neutral appearance

Developed exclusively for AGC, this special PVB film also features a unique, perfectly neutral appearance which does not alter the colour of the glass in any way. This is especially noticeable when AGC’s highly transparent Planibel Clearvision is used in the Stratobel Strong assembly. A perfectly neutral appearance is guaranteed, even in very thick versions.

Processing and availability

Stratobel Strong is available in a wide range of thicknesses and in large dimensions up to 321 cm x 600 cm. It can be combined with clear, coloured or coated glass, or highly transparent glass (low-iron content), and can be processed in all the same ways as other laminated glass products.
